Yes, and you said something similar in the other thread to which I replied that great club can’t be 1d10 and heavy (and two-handed) because it lacks reach and is a simple weapon.
And I still disagree with that assertion.

The strange case of the quarterstaff.
Quarterstaff: 1d6 (versatile 1d8) + STR. Using with a one hand, you can apply the Fighting Style Dueling that gives +2 bonus to damage roll. In addition, it is possible to apply the Polearm Master feat, which makes you use your bonus action to make an extra attack.
The problem, in my view, is that you can use the combination of fighting style along with feat and shield. Compared to a greatsword, this combo gives 51.5 DPR (4d6+20+8+1d4+5+2 = 51,5) while a greatsword gives 52 DPR (both Fighter LVL 20).
Yep the worstAs a DM, I agree with you. It should really be 2 handed.
As a Player, I wish to want to wish to want to strongly take on the sage advice rules and get away with it.
Does that make me a bad person?
But Movie Gandalf does hit orcs with his staff (with sword in other hand) in Return of the King.Yeah, but there's a big difference between using something as a weapon and using it as a spellcaster focus.
